rob16584 42 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 It's been a while since I have made the EGLL-KJFK trip, so with the house to myself for the day I loaded up the old gal and took her for a ride... Pushing back at EGLL Position and hold Thundering down the runway, rotate at 200kts Blasting away from Heathrow Entering the clouds over Bristol preparing to accellerate to M 1.7 One for you Micke! The famous 'curvature of the earth' FL560 Heading over the Atlantic being passed over to Gander control Canada in sight Begining to descend for landing and starting to loose speed Slowing her down and getting into that famous nose-high attitude Finals to 22L at Kennedy Just a few seconds from touchdown I might do it all again tomorrow and go the other way Link to post Share on other sites
